The World Health Organization (WHO) has recently released a review report. The report mentions that the use of mobile phones does not prevent brain cancer. WHO has re-examined reports dating back over two decades and prepared its review based on them. In the last few years, the use of smartphones has increased all over the world. However, despite its increased use, no connection has been found with brain cancer due to smartphones.
In this research, those people who use smartphones excessively have been included. Some such people have also participated, who have been using phones excessively for years. The researchers released this information after reviewing 63 studies conducted from 1994 to 2022.
11 researchers from 10 countries participated in this research, including experts from the Australian Government's Radiation Protection Authority. This study is a relief for children and all people who use smartphones for long periods of time. However, this does not mean that there are no negative effects of using too many smartphones. This review looks at the effects of radiofrequency radiation, which is used in mobile phones, TVs, baby monitors and other devices.
Professor Mark Ellwood, co-author of this research and a cancer expert, said that no research has shown that there is an increased risk. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has put the waves emitted from mobile phones in the category of 'probably carcinogenic'.
